Hi Maryderry
 
 I think you may be onto somethig.I am wondering if Biddy might be betsy,as i have a betsy morrow born around the same time.

  I had a look at the death certificate for margaret morrow (wright) and the mothers maiden name is wylie.So the unnamed child might be Margaret.
 
  I would like to thank you for taking the time to help me out,it is very much appreciated.

John Morrow is actually William John Morrow who married Margaret Jane Wright (born on 18 September 1863) on 17 April 1884 at Trinity (2nd Presbyterian) church, Ahoghill. 
Their child Margaret was born, I believe, in Scotland.  I have a date of birth as 7 February 1885 but cannot for the life of me remember where I obtained this information. 
I do know Margaret Jane Wright had a brother Joseph born 27 March 1853 as he was my ggrandfather.  She had brother Thomas John born 18 August 1864, sister Mary Ellen born 18 September 1867, sister Grace born 16 March 1870, and I believe another brother called Henry but have no further information about him.
The message about Kylie being Wylie is correct.
Hope this information helps.

Hi Mej
 Thanks for the information on John and Margaret.

 I have checked for their daughters,Margaret's birth at New Register House but can not find anything.The reason that I suggested that she was born in Ireland was that she first appeared on the 1901 Census and she is down as being   born in  Ireland.She then married Thomas Scott on the 3 March 1905,and she died on the 6 June 1937.

 The first Cencus that I have for John and Margaret is the 1891 Cencus.They have a son Robert also born in Ireland abt 1888 and he was 3 yers old.then their was matthew how was born 16 march 1889 in Harthill,Lanarkshire.

 Do you have any idea when they moved over to Scotland.

Hi
Margaret Morrow born 1885 was baptised as Maggie not Margaret - now I know where I got her date of birth - seen it, 7th February 1885, and baptism dated 26 July 1885 at 2nd Presbyterian Church (Trinity) Ahoghill - no. 2240.  Information on baptism record states Maggie born in Scotland.  Also seen marriage record of William John Morrow and Margaret Jane Wright, date 17 April 1884, page 18, no. 35, 2nd Presbyterian Church (Trinity) Ahoghill.  William John's residence at time of marriage was Harthill, Scotland.  Suggestion?  - married then moved to Scotland, returned for baptism of daughter Maggie and went home again.  By the way, witnesses to marriage were Joseph Wright and Mary Ellen Wright.
